Overview:

Malawi MFL

Facility locations managed by the Ministry of Health and Population Malawi. WHO guidance states that it should be updated at least every 2 years. Last update is unknown.
Locations in lat-long, CRS set to WGS84
1546 facilities reported, data includes name, ownership, type of facility and functional status.
1426 facilities after removing NAs
9 types of facilities, including unclassified. Number of each type is shown. Top 3 are clinics (585), health centers (520) and Dispensaries (179). All are primary level. What is private?

WHO-KWTRP

Focuses on facilities run by government, faith-based organisations, NGO’s and local authorities. Covers 50 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Sources of information include health sector reports, websites run by national or international organisations and personal communications
If MFL was available it was used. More than one datasource was often used to compile facility list
Private facilities are excluded, duplicates removed, name errors corrected and name variations were matched. Missing info was added with the use of other datasources.
Now hosted by the WHO Global Malaria Programme, last update February 2019
Malawi datasources includes MFL, https://data.humdata.org/dataset/malawi-health and http://www.cham.org.mw/uploads/7/3/0/8/73088105/cham_health_facilities_-_1_june_2016.pdf
At time of publishing, 639 facilities with 9 missing coordinates, not been updated since
Data includes facility name, type, ownership, source of location and reclassified facility types

Both data sources contain no information on services available, capacity or equipment. MFL does state whether facility is functional.

Classification of MFL facilities aligns more with the structure of the health care system in Malawi (community, primary, secondary, tertiary), it differentiates central hospitals from district and other hospitals. WHO has additional rural and mission hospitals, where do they fit in?

https://www.health.gov.mw/index.php/2016-01-06-19-58-23/national-aids states that at community level, health posts, dispensaries and maternity clinics offer services. Primary includes health centers and community hospitals, secondary consists of district and some CHAM hospitals, tertiary includes central hospitals.

Analysis:

1546 compared to 648 facilities, difference of 898

Qs to address?:

How many facilities are in the same location across the MFL and WHO datasets?

2 points intersect directly and so are same up to 5 decimal places (WHO data has all coordinates to 5 decimal places). Check fewer decimal places to see if more intersect?

Do same facilities share same names/other attributes?

Ownership is the same for both facilities but Euthini is registered as a rural hospital in the MFL data while in the WHO data, it is a health centre. The name reflects this.

Automating the process of sorting facility types into 4 tiers as (Falchetta et al., 2020). Tier 1: dispensary or basic health post; Tier 2: health center; Tier 3: provincial hospital or regional hospital; and Tier 4: central hospital or national hospital.

Function that recognises the different facility types and in different languages (downside = similar to manual process, hard to account for all variations)
Use code/id/reference codes provided with data, do they refer to type of facility? Couldn’t find how the MoH codes with the MFL data for Malawi were assigned
Use capacity data if available?
